STEPPIN' ON SOME TOES 032515 - CIRCLE OF NO REGRETS
James Michael Taylor
STEPPIN’ ON SOME TOES Key - Em and E
Em
Well, some folks got big noses
Some folks got big hats
Some folks stand out in the aisle
Make it hard to pass
Am
Some folks they got money
Em
They say, “That’s just how it goes.”
B7 A
They make it hard for folks like me
A Am Em
To keep from steppin’ on some toes
Some folks got big old cars. They drive them all around
Million-dollar mansions a hundred miles from town
Some folks, they got daughters
They think they smell like a rose
They make it hard for folks like me
To keep from steppin’ on some toes
E
Well, it’s easy to look happy. Put a smile upon your face
Wiping all the tears away. Never leave a trace
A
Some folks say they want the truth
E
I don’t think they do
B7 A Am
Everybody knows, you tell the truth
Em
You start steppin’ on some toes.
Rich boy go to Harvard. Poor boy goes to war
Keep the world safe for rich man’s daughter
You know that’s what he’s for. He’s Cannon fodder
That’s how the story goes
Makes it hard for folks like me
To keep from steppin’ on some toes
Makes it hard for folks with big feet
From steppin’ on some toes.

Loving this song ❤️
Love it Jim!
On the nail with the lyrics and great guitar tone. Nice harp work.
Right on song, brother.
A song for a revolution
Aww love it to bits. The lyrics and their delivery are superb. I'm liking the wandering between major and minor in the chords.
How are you producing the percussion sounds? I dig the distance and echo of it. This is a fabulous production -- I'm listening for the third time as I type this.
A bit like Bob Dylan, a bit like Neil Young -- more Bob than Neil -- but the lyrics are really brilliant. Awesome performance. ROCK ON!
